The Hardy Ice Plant Table Mountain, 'Delosperma Table Mountain', is a wonderful ground cover that has single, fushia blooms. The foliage, which makes this plant a real winner, is deep green, almost succulent looking and extremely shinny. 'Table Mountain' is said to be an improvement of Delosperma 'Cooperi'. Ice Plant has a plant spread of 18” and a height of 2-3”. For best results, plant Delosperma in a sunny area, with some afternoon shade, with well- drained soil. It does prefer dry and sandy soil and does not like wet soil in the winter. Hot conditions keep the flowers blooming most of the summer and it requires little to no care. Delosperma looks great as a ground cover in a rock garden or in front of a perennial border.

Ice plant ground cover is useful to cover hot, dry spots where most other flowering perennials are not happy, and it is also becoming increasingly popular as an underplanting for Roses as well as a container subject! Whatever your garden design, select a spot in full -- even blazing! -- sun and well-drained soil. This iceplant blooms in just 4 months from seed!
